What Talk to Users does

Run developer customer discovery via a Technical Advisory Board (TAB). Use when the founder has never interviewed a user who isn't a friend, is inventing messaging in isolation, or is guessing at the roadmap instead of hearing the pain firsthand.

Talk to Users is cataloged under Writing on DirSkills. Talk to Users comes from a repository tagged agent-skills, ai, ai-founders, claude and claude-code.

Excerpt

Talk to users (the TAB system)

The best marketing to developers comes from talking to developers. That's it. Everything else in this repo is downstream of this skill.

Use this when: you've never done a real user interview, your messaging is clever but unverified, or you keep debating the roadmap internally instead of asking the people who feel the pain.

The core idea

Stand up a Technical Advisory Board: 30-50 people who represent your users and buyers, not grey-haired advisors telling you how to build. You interview them, on repeat, and let their words become your positioning, roadmap, and homepage copy.

A TAB call is not a demo and not a sales call. It's an interview. You never mention the product.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
